This is very cool, is this ship some kind of Detroyat variant? That secondary hull looks a little small is all I mean

It's a Pallada class light cruiser of my own design.

Sweet (my big sister said it looks like a plucked chicken but shes no sense of grace when applied to ship design) is that a window in the bridge where the viewer should go?

She isn't the most beoutiful thing in the world, but she has lots of battles behind her. She is a dedicated battlecruiser.
The balck thing on the bridge dome... nobody knows. It was there on the Pilot version of the Enterprise, so it is there on mine, too.

Maybe its the viewscreen polarised. Effects budgets not to mention tunable LCDs and TFT didn't exactlty exist when the pilot was made.

Or just a buffer plate to protect the most vournelable section of the bridge.

Nahh, it was planned when I revised the model. Always aiming for show-accuracy

Thank you very much!
The Drydock is the very one that would have been featured in Phase II.

Thank you very much! It's the Phase II concept drydock.

Excellent. How much time between this routine repairs and refit?

Thank you!
Routine repairs are annual. Refits... whenever some new groundbreaking tech is available.

Very cool!! You are really developing your USS Polaris idea fully in many ways. I am really glad you're having a great time with it. I like your crew shot too!
It's fun to see your ideas about who you'd have for your command crew. This is a wonderful and quite appropriate take on a TOS spacedock and the workbee idea. They fit very well here. Great work and great fun!!

Thank you very much.
For the TOS designs, I usually use unused concepts (Phase II, Jeffries' original designs, Franz Joseph's stuff, etc.).
As for the crew: I wanted Summer Glau in my crew. I have a huge crush on her (but I wasn't an asshole and her character Charlotte Ainsworth and Captain Metlesits have nothing except for military respect and honor). Vasya Nussbaum is, in a way, based upon my best friend, who is, actually, a girl. She keeps me on the field of rationality as much as Vasya does with Captain Metlesits.
JΓΌrgen Vogel... he's my favourite actor, I couldn't leave him out of my crew.
